Shouldn't the Air Force wait until the BRAC does its work before making a determination on where the A-10s should be located?

But do you understand the inconsistency? The Air Force wants to do it now before there's a BRAC, before there's the thorough review.

the cost analyses have not been forthcoming from DOD.

I'm not at all convinced of is the cost savings achieved by doing this, specifically with the A-10s.

I am concerned, though, that the Air National Guard and the Air Reserve component were not necessarily listened to...

I appreciate that. And I do think that they're key to our economic future.

I would encourage you to take a look at it, and hopefully help generate some support for it.

FRA appreciates Sen. Mark Pryor's leadership by introducing the 'Honor American's Guard-Reserve Retirees' (S. 491) bill.

This is a great example of how sometimes you spend millions but save billions.

It is always good to see you.

Are you confident that Homeland Security will still be providing assistance for people who want to mitigate disasters?
